Happy week 2 gorgeous Preps!

I hope you had a lovely first week of Term 4. Last week, Li laoshi completed a beautiful

drawing of a cat and shared it with my friends. Everyone loved it! I just found that it was so

different between drawing a human face and an animal face. It looks like we have more

facial expressions and more details. Let’s explore the ways to describe our face parts by

saying Chinese words. And We are going to start by pointing at your ears, eyebrows, eyes,

nose and mouth.

Step 1: Listen to this face song, and learn to pronounce each face part using your fingers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YF7pzy_Cwm4

Step 2: Peking Opera is a kind of well - known Chinese opera. Monkey King is one of many

famous characters. His 脸liǎn（face）is usually painted as below. He has very different face

parts because of his personality.

Learning Task:

Please draw the Monkey King mask on your book, and copy these face part words. Draw an

arrow to connect from the work to the correct face part.

What do you think will be his personality? Is he shy or naughty? Can you describe his face

and record your description to share with us!

and spicy.

Year 5 Unit: My school and quality education

Hello amazing Year 5s,

There are many G5 learners who have uploaded their work with excellent quality.

Some students made videos in Chinese to talk about their holidays (not a short one

with few sentences, 1-2 proper paragraphs all in Chinese!); some students wrote

about their holidays and family activities with lots of complex sentences in Chinese;

some students made PowerPoint Presentations and “spoke” about traditional games

in their own culture. I learnt a lot of traditional Indian and Sri Lanka games as I read

their Power Points. Thanks for sharing those great games with me, I will try some of

these fun games with my family after work.

Congratulations to these students! I am so proud of you! You are trying your very

best and that is leading you to achieve success.

This week we will start our new unit and learn how to introduce school settings and

learning environments with complex sentence structures in Chinese. You will explore

schools in China and other countries that you are interested in. You will experience

an inquiry study and research the similarities and differences in schools around the

world and show your preferences and opinions about what quality education is.
